FAQs
What materials are these spatulas made from?
The spatulas are made from heat-resistant silicone with durable handles.
Are these spatulas safe for non-stick cookware?
Yes, the silicone material is safe for all types of cookware, including non-stick surfaces, as it will not scratch.
Can I use these spatulas for high-heat cooking?
These spatulas are heat-resistant for typical cooking tasks. However, avoid prolonged direct contact with very high heat sources like the side of a hot pan.
How should I clean the spatulas?
They are dishwasher safe for convenient cleaning. Hand washing with soap and water is also effective.
Will these spatulas stain?
Silicone can potentially stain from highly pigmented foods. Prompt cleaning after use can help prevent or minimize staining.
What is the difference between the Small Spatula and the Jar Spatula?
The Small Spatula is suited for general mixing and scraping in bowls, while the Jar Spatula is designed with a narrower profile to reach into skinny jars and tight spaces.
Are these spatulas BPA-free?
OXO Good Grips products are typically BPA-free, though specific product labeling should always be checked for confirmation.
Troubleshooting
Spatula feels stiff.
Ensure the spatula has been thoroughly cleaned. New silicone products can sometimes have a slight initial stiffness. Regular use and proper washing will typically soften it.
Food residue is difficult to remove.
Soak the spatula in warm, soapy water for a few minutes before washing. If staining persists, a paste of baking soda and water can be gently rubbed onto the affected area.
Spatula is not scraping effectively.
Ensure you are using the correct spatula for the task. The Jar Spatula's design is specific for narrow openings. Check that the flexible edge is clean and free of debris.
